Great photo, but please give credit where credit is due. This pic is thanks to the wonderful crewe at stuffonmycat.com!
This is not cute. This is not funny. Humour does not justify this. This is serious mistreatment of animals even if the photographer was able to stage the shot without harming the cat. And as has been said before, the tacit approval given to stunts like this by promoting them as humour could very well lead to animals being harmed by less competent imitators.
Do not bother to respond to this comment. I will not be reading the moronic outburst of mockery that it will no doubt provoke because I am leaving now and will not be back. I can not condone this kind of abuse by my presence.
To those of you who are not completely hardened: please think about what you are encouraging here.
I must disagree. If the cat was not harmed, then there is no harm done. So I don’t really see why one should get upset.
But then again, it is one’s personal decision whether to view a site or not, so I can’t disagree about kitisitr’s choice.
How do you know no harm was done?
How much harm qualifies as “harm?”
Abuse is abuse is abuse.
Sociologists know that people that abuse pets also abuse people.
How much harm could be done to you before you’d consider it harmful?
This is DEFINITELY NOT funny.
There’s always a possibility that this kind of thing happens to the poor cat all the time and while not PHYSICAL harm was done, I think we all know that kittehs are people too =) and get scared just like we do. I personally don’t like these kinds of photos but I’m also not going to freak out about it either. I just ask that people remember that pets have feelings - they get scared, they get excited…also, the funniest pictures here aren’t staged.
Hai, dont be so alarmed, kitteh safe. They be takin da pic and removin the glass
let me guess. Peta member?
stuff it.
Amen!
YOU stuff it. Not everyone that loves animals is a PETA member and I’m tired
of this trend of PETA haters. Do you even know why you hate PETA? Yes
because someone you perceive as cool hates them too so you have to
follow along. Try FM radio sometime and quit listening to stupid right-wing
rhetoric. Why are you even here if you don’t like animals? Sounds like
you’re practically a tree huggin’ hippie PETA member yourself! I’ll go ahead and state
that I am NOT a member of PETA lest you lash-out by calling me one. Not
that I’m going to bother reading your banal response anyway.
…..u no that photo was photoshopped dont u?
we did somthing like this 4 a school multimedia project, he just got a photo of a cat & put it over a photo of an empty glass container
This blatently isn’t photoshopped because the cat’s face is pressed up against the golass and it’s feet arecrossed over, and it’s hackles are up
Do not want!
Luckily the cat is smarter than you and isn’t upset
^^^ WIN!
Hey doofus,
Instead of worrying about this ONE cat who 99.9% wasn’t harmed,
why don’t you go join a volunteer group saving actual endangered people and pets?
duh.
ppl who come on this site love cats.
obviously.
no one would cause harm to a cat.
especially not on purpose.
the most harm this did was make the cat be passive agressive for a day and tear up a shoe.
kthxbi.
=]
This is way funny gotta say.
cute kitty too .
:]
Yes, well, he does look cramped, but I honestly don’t see any reason to get
upset. Especially, as Christyy Cuddles said, there are much worse cases of
animal abuse going on. I can’t help feeling like you’re overreacting.
Umm..You know you disproved your point when you said it doesn’t matter if the cat was unharmed combined with mistreatment right? XD. People who think they know everything are the dumbest mother fuckers ever. I swear XD
to kitisitr: dey r ok. u just lift teh glass and dent teh kitteh alrite. lyke hold teh top part and den teh kitteh free
(translayshin: they’re okay. just lift the glassa nd the kitty alright. it’s like you hold the top part and the kitty’s free)
our reader submissions are often missing any identifying information. thanks for the follow up cat-astrophe!
I gunna hatch any minit….
Sylvia Plath cat!
hahaahhaha +5 Retahn
This one is just plain cruelty to animals. That poor cat. It looks so upset. I can’t even laugh at this.
yep. that’ll stop ‘em. idiot. there are many MANY pets starving on the streets. but nope, THIS ones the unlucky one :/

This is a bonzai kitty all growd up.
lolz! Snot mean, sfunny.
Cats are remarkably resilient creatures, and f’sho that’s not causing kitty any pain. His furry li’l world got awfully weird for a minute, but whatev. He didn’t even waste half a life on this one.
Da ASPCA bots wif no senses of humor should not have kittahs ’cause they donts knowz how funny dey is. I meanz, I has mah kittah stuffed in a beer bottle right now and she’s not complaining. I keed I keed. No flame plz, k thx.
For those who are concerned about the safety of the kitty, please don’t worry. SOMC is very careful about only posting pictures where no kitty has been harmed, and submissions are by wondeful folks who really love their kitties. I’m sure the loving owner who did this took it off as soon as the pic had been snapped.
I would imagine all cat owners have been a little silly with our kitties at some point, much to the kitty’s dismay! Personally, I love the floof factor on this one!
lol Precisely! I do crazy stuff to my cats all the time, but nothing that would harm them or cause them to dislike me. They let me do things like what was done to this cat because they trust me, and I would never abuse that trust…
…’cept for the time I dressed my male Corgi up in pink baby clothes, but he’s a dog, so he doesn’t count. >:3
@Cat-astrophe: exactly.
Haha nice one
hahahahahhaha i lovvvvvess it
lol Retahn, sylvia plath cat ftw.
yah, i has seen cats do weirder stuff than this. if this cat was mad, it would be all GRARRARRRARRARRR an would scratch holy hell out of everything in the room. this cat is probalby just all “wtf????? i iz in bell jar????” an then teh photographer removed teh bell jar an teh cat went off in serch of cheezburgers.
If that cat was that po’d it would have backed over and out…I can’t even get my cat in the cat carrier half the time, much less install a force field, if he’s not up for it!!
OMG THANK YOU
Even if the owner removed the glass immediately after the picture was taken, it was a cruel idea to begin with. That cat looks miserable, and there is nothing humorous about mistreating animals for your own pleasure, even if it is for a brief moment. And the cats are resilient comment? Most animals are resilient, including of course humans. Let’s hope you wouldn’t suffocate your best friend for a few minutes just for shits and giggles.
Yes, i do have a sense of humor. And I love this website. I hope you continue to promote pictures that capture cats and kittens in their natural ridiculous moments.
Wait, what? So you’ve never played punch-buggy? Or the “slaps” game? Given a friend an Indian-burn? been a little too agressive in a pillow-fight? Dangled your little sister over a 20-foot drop just to see her squirm?
Face it, part of being a friend is doing things to your friends that they don’t like. I hold my cat friends in the same regard as my human friends. I’ll hold my cat with my on the couch while I’m watching TV, even though she obviously wants out of the room, but I’ll sit on my sister even though I weigh twice as much as her.
If I were to put my cat on some sort of untouchable pedestal like you seem to, I would never be able to relate to her. She’d be this furry little thing that hides in corners, eats food I put out for her, and poops on my sister’s bed instead of the litterbox.
Yes! Thank you! kittehs are our friends and we luvers them lots! That’s why we do silly things to them, and dogs, and our people friends, and lolrunses, and i could go on all day. But still we do it ’cause we love them and they love us too. They have their wtf moments, walk on ur face while ur sleepin and move on. and as someone noted above, the kitteh must be cool w/it or it would not have been in the position in the first place. All who have EVER owned a cat (excuse befriended a cat) know that you can never get a cat to do something it doesn’t want to w/o losing some skin.
Hear hear!!! I too hope ICHC continues to promote pictures that capture cats and kittens in their NATURAL ridiculous moments.
I thought you weren’t coming back…it was much nicer here when you weren’t here…go away now, stop complaining, cancel you’re internet service and throw away your computer. While you’re at it, cancel any newspaper subscriptions and cable services you might have as well. The cat is ok! it’s a large jar with a furry cat…the fur to air ratio is enough for a picture. Go fight for something that is actually cruel, fight against Bush.
I’ve seen kitties more upset over their owners putting them into stupid costumes, yet this is supposedly worse? It’s not like they keep their cat in this jar all day. Get over yourself and go overreact elsewhere.
Somehow, I doubt this is what Aesop had in mind when he wrote “Belling the Cat.” Nonetheless, very effective.

kitteh sai ’sumfink ish rong… wai i not movez?’
bro that cat can die without Oxygen
..
True, but that doesn’t mean that it’s in danger of it in this case.
There’s more than enough O2 for that kitty for a good three minute span, at least. While it’s not healthy to test the limits of that, a 30 second span would not be harmful to the kitty. The only thing that happened was there was a shocked kitteh in a glass jar.
I hate these pics they make me sick
Yes when that pic made me sick as well. That was horrible and mean, why would you do that to your pet? Just for the fun of it? Only a sick mind.
i hate it ,its horribule
I bet you anything that keetee is still alive.
And i bet you anything that said keetee is very much over its glassy dome.
And I bet that cat lurvs its owner just as much as it did.
You are all silly to freak out about such a trivial matter.
I mean, sure. I bet the cat didn’t like it very much. But hey, you face uncomfortable shit in your life.
You get over it
This isn’t funny. I find most pictures on Icanhascheezburger.com to be silly and make me laugh, but not this. Though the cat may not have been harmed, I don’t think that this is acceptable and, if you care about animals and abusive behavior, neither should you.
Just putting my opinion out there.
Don’t even bother to respond because I won’t read it
I love how these people that are offended feel compelled to share their opinions, expecting everyone else to “listen,” but state flat out that they won’t give others the same respect.
I mean… lolz.
I agree completely… if u make a post and expect people not to minimize it as soon as the see ur name then actually see what they have 2 say in return and dont flame pics with out knowin the details first. *cough* kitisitr! *cough*
“WTF MY FACE IS FLAT ENOUGH THX”
“you bumped my nose on way in, haet you :(”
Hai,
I work in animal rescue and I can assure you that this is not anything close to abuse. Cats are extremely flexible ( as we all know) and like small spaces, as shown here:
http://icanhascheezburger.com/2007/08/05/teh-kitteh-jar/
This can be a real danger when you’re having construction done and have holes in your walls or floors or open pipes or ducts, as they are very curious (I won’t dig up the old adage, but you know it). I can’t tell you how many time I’ve pulled kittehs out from behind drywall.
In terms of air supply, the cat has quite enough for at least several minutes, though I’m sure it wasn’t under there even that long. It was probably a bit peculiar for him, but he was not in any way traumatized.
Nonetheless, thanks for your concern as I have seen to many cases of real neglect and abuse to complain about people being overly vigilant in protecting animals.
It’s only abuse if you don’t eat the meat.
